it was quite the weekend at Vegas, as Thursday Sally & I parked over 250 cars in 70 mph wind gust. Friday was darn cold with Stephen Hebert with his Reher & Morrison powered Hemi Cuda being #1 spot in the SS/AH shooutout @ 8.577-152.93 but on the run a drive shaft left the car and played havic with the undercarriage of the car. Stephen, John & Benn Holt elected to load the car and call it a weekend cause of the damage done. Great Finals as Mark beat Dave on a holeshot 8.77 to Daves 8.72. Thanks guys for waiting a extra day to get better weather for finals as I know some wouldn't of been so understanding as the 7 i had there, great bunch of racers i had this year, thank you all.

It was really great talking Jim Hale into coming to the event and watching him go on to win the SS/Stock Combo. Ken did a great job on his runner up finish also.
Also SS/Stock racer John Calvert won the special heads up A/FX eliminator we had there with his 64 Thunderbolt.

Thank you to everybody that came and ran the race and I'm going back to Ohio on Tuesday, my buddies, Rich South and Ralph Cardamone wants me to go to four wide with them as soon as i get off the plane but i'm passing on it so i can get the stats sent to the printers this week.
